 Speak to them like what? I am merely pointing out the factual errors you have made about the language Scots speak. I'm sorry you find that offensive.

"Speak to them like what?"

The way you do about the languages etc... nto to mention that you seem to think there is no national football side in your country (which isn't a country).

I am very well aware of the Scottish football team. I do not believe that the UN defines nationhood on the basis of football teams. I prefer to go by what it says on my passport.

Tibet is a nation. The UN doesn't recognise it. The Kurds are too.

Andrew, I am quite happy to debate with you on the issues raised here, but I am not going to be drawn on a debate as to whether the UK is a nation or not. This is rediculous.

I don't know where you are from, but you should be aware of an act of Parliament called the Act of Union, that effectively dissolved the Scottish state, and formed the United Kingdom in 1707. It exists, honest.

I know all about the treaty of union, but a piece of paper doesn't change people. Anymore than the Maastricht treaty stopped you being British.
